Second post for week 9.

Hope you enjoyed my beautiful work of art. Tony and the Ace Kickers got me through some rough times :)

Anyway, I'm going to dedicate this post to telling you about my 2010 Big Day Out ticket.

So I stayed up wednesday night until 12 am (which became officially thursday) in hope of buying a ticket for me and two friends during the first wave of online sales released at midnight.

I clicked the link, it took about 10 minutes to load (due to mass lag of people trying to do the same thing) and eventually the page where you put in your credit card details came up. So I entered the details, how many tickets, my name/email etc, which took all of about 5 minutes. So when I'm finished I click "purchase".

By this point, 15 minutes since 12 am had elapsed, and I was greeted with a page saying "Sorry, sold out!"

I was left with two options, wake up at 3 am (which was in about 3 hours) and go line up at Sunflower CDs at Pacific Fair, or wait till 9 am that morning and try for the second wave of tickets on ticketek.

No way was I going to miss out on a ticket on account of the discepencies of technology! So I got my ass out of bed, went with some friends and waited in line from 6 am till 9:30 am, got a ticket, and $50 from a man who paid me to cut in line behind me. And that's why it was the best day ever. (not really, it left me exhausted/pissed off lol)
